Peaches Geldof’s family are planning to scatter her ashes in grounds where she used to play as a youngster.

They say that the gardens of Davington Priory, Kent, in which her childhood home stood, and where her mother’s ashes were scattered, held special memories for the tragic mum of two, who died last Monday aged just 25.

The source said: “Peaches’ happiest memories were there – there would be no other place to hold the funeral and have her ashes scattered. The family were all so happy there – it was just idyllic.”

Yesterday there was growing speculation that Peaches’ sudden death may have been related to her alarming weight loss over recent months.

The chances of suffering heart failure increase among those suffering from slimming diseases like bulimia or anorexia. One friend said: “No one knows exactly how Peaches died but you do worry about the possibility of such things happening to her.”

It emerged yesterday that a number of the young mum’s celebrity friends – including Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw and TV host Alexia Chung – had flown home from the Coachella Music Festival in California ahead of the funeral.

Sir Bob, 62, is said to be “utterly heartbroken” over his daughter’s unexplained death at her home in Wrotham, Kent.

Peaches was found with her 11-month-old son Phaedra by her side. Her other son, 23-month-old Astala, was believed to be with his dad, who had been spending the night with his own parents.

Peaches’ former nanny Anita will now have a key role in the upbringing of the two boys, and in the funeral plans.

Our source said: “Anita was adored by peaches. She never left her side.

"The sisters all know how close they were and will know how much Peaches would want Anita to be running the funeral plans.

“I know that she wished for Anita to be fully involved in her two boys’ upbringing if anything happened to her.

"If Anita didn’t have those boys she would be without a rudder.”

Peaches’ family are now awaiting results of toxicology tests after a post mortem last week proved inconclusive.

Her death was discoverd after the alarm was raised by her husband Thomas who became concerned when she failed to answer several phone calls on Monday morning.

A school friend said the former party girl had not taken “serious” drugs for several years, adding: “The biggest concern was her health. Everyone knew she had serious problems with her weight.

“Recently she had become incredibly frail physically. She’d had these issues for years and her body was clearly not in a good way.”

A spokesperson for the family declined to comment.

Secret Facebook

Peaches appeared to share every intimate moment of her life on Twitter and Instagram.

But we can reveal that she stayed in touch with the people closest to her on a secret Facebook site.

While she was happy to tweet and proudly post pictures of her sons Astala and Phaedra for her fans, she used a pseudonym to communicate with husband Tom Cohen and her best friends on her Facebook page.

She used the name Melody Nelson, believed to have been inspired by a song by French artist Serge Gainsbourg which – in a cruel twist of fate – talks about the death of a young girl.

The poignant lyrics of Ballade de Melody Nelson say: “She had love, poor Melody Nelson. Yeah, she had tons of it.

"But her days were numbered. Fourteen autumns and fifteen summers.”

Just like her Instagram postings, Peaches’ Facebook page is covered with photographs of her boys.

They include a picture of Phaedra peering over a room divider screen while a seemingly naked Peaches wraps her leg around it.

It perfectly sums up her life as both a devoted mother and attractive young woman.

Her childhood nanny Anita Debney – who cared for the devastated young Peaches when her parents split – appears to have been a constant support on Facebook, leaving touching messages, such as, ‘Sweetheart you are beautiful xxx’.

Peaches constantly reaffirms her love for her children, telling one pal who asks if she fancies a night out: “Dude, the only way you’ll see me out is if you come to Kent armed with clean nappies!!”

And in a nod to her past life in New York where she partied hard, she tells a friend: ”Adventures. dark times. fun.”

Another online picture shows husband Tom and Peaches posing together during a night out in matching female outfits.

They are both dressed in purple jackets with fur collars and leopard print skirts.
